The French-born Petipa, choreographer for the then Tsar, worked with Tchaikovsky in the ideas as well as score of Nutcracker but fell ill before he could work out the ballet choreography, leaving that job to his equally famous Russian colleague Ivanov.
2 or 3 acts depending on the choreographer.
George Balanchine was probably the most famous ballet choreographer. He created many original works that ballet companies still dance today. His works are complex and challenging for the dancers who dance in them. He choreographed his own version of the Nutcracker and he helped found the New York City Ballet.
The original Nutcracker play was ballet.
The Nutcracker! :D That one's the most well-known...I'm not sure if there are any other famous Christmas ballet's though. Hope that helps. :)

The original nutcracker play was written by E.T.A Hoffmman in 1816. In 1892 the story was turned into a ballet by Alexandre Dumas that is based on the original story the Nutcracker and Mouse king.
